also, cedric cox - who was talked about as a target here? - has requested a trade home to western australia

will be a good get for either perth side off HB on the wide expanses

sad to see the recruit depart, what a story ❤️❤️

 

No exposed form for this year and only NEAFL form before that but Wooler might be worth looking at as key forward depth if we need some. Good endurance runner and neat skills, maybe not the quickest or most explosive but could be useful across half forward.

Mitch Hinge a good size left footed half back flanker who still doesn't have a deal for the Lions and obviously is stuck behind some good players in Brisbane's backline. Could be worth grabbing


Skinner was apparently going to be a superstar when picked up #12 in draft. Very highly thought of.  2 knee reco's thereafter.  still hghly regarded at both ends of the ground.  Might be a reasonable SPP pick up for KK.

Think you've got the wrong guy. He was pick #12 in the rookie draft when he was redrafted. He was a speculative tall when drafted at pick 47.

We should definitely try to steal him from the WA clubs. What could possibly go wrong?

 

Jacob Allison....wasn't he meant to be a top 5 pick in his draft year or something? 

Sam Skinner was a kid Melbourne were very interested in his draft year .


Skinner didnt play well at all in his games this year and wooler couldn't crack a game this year when they had a revolving door of tall forwards so i think its checks all round.

target witherden and let them keep minge even if birchall retires

birchall has triggered his 2021 contract by dint of the amount of games he played in 2020 and intends to go on

witherden is on serious coin for the next two years; not sure we could afford him given other targets (brown, i smith, phillips)

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
